A Fresh Perspective on the Astronomy of the Mahabharata ISBN: 978-1-9051860-1-3 © Dr Manish Pandit 2019 !ii Dedicated To My Gurus and Divine Mother Kali !i Foreword 3067BCE: A Fresh Perspective on the Astronomy of the Mahabharata I made the film “Krishna: History or Myth” in 2008 after a set of severe arguments on the subject of the historicity of Sri Krishna and Sri Rama, one of which was with a junior doctor when working as a surgeon in 2002 in the West Midlands. I had come across several pieces of research which claimed to corroborate the astronomy of the Mahabharata war. Amongst these were the research by PV Vartak, (5561BCE) a senior MBBS doctor residing in Pune who I have had the pleasure of meeting years ago in Pune, the research by Dr Narahari Achar from Memphis (3067BCE), Balakrishna and Sengupta (2449BCE) among others. I never wanted to really make a film on the subject, but nobody else was willing, partly due to the cost involved in the shooting of such a film (those were the days when digital film cameras were only just about becoming affordable) and of the course nobody wanted to take the risk of making a film which most Indian, English language, Hinduphobic channels would not show. I also had to check and see which piece of research was actually true: 5561BCCE, 3067BCE, 3139BCE, 3043BCE or indeed 1478BCE or 2449BCE among others. It took me a lot of time to go through the various pieces of research from 2004 to 2007 and eventually after taking great care to !ii exclude the wrong pieces of research, I sat down and corroborated the research on Redshift. It was a laborious process in those days and computers used to crash more often after even basic searches. Only after I was satisfied that 3067BCE was the year of the war did I dare make the film “Krishna History or Myth”. It would be very difficult for me to make a film whose featured research could be easily debunked. Hence I ended up featuring the war proposal of 3067BCE, which is perhaps the most credible dating effort of the Mahabharata war ever proposed, in my film with interviews by Dr Narahari Achar. The film became a major success with screenings in 30+ countries and +1.5 million views at least. Then in 2015, I came across a set of different pieces of research by various researchers including Shri Nilesh Oak, which challenged the basis of 3067BCE and claimed that other dates (and only their dates) were the date of the war. I started examining these claims afresh and eventually last year in 2019, I started to re-read the Mahabharata and undertook a deep study of the astronomy references (I dug up my old 2008 notes on the Mahabharata). I eventually arrived at a modified theory of 3067BCE which includes a Tri- Pushya theory (for Krishna’s Mission of Peace), a new theory of Balarama’s pilgrimage, a new war theory to fix the 18th day of the war instead of the first day (thereby changing the first day of the war) and a fresh reasoning for Bhisma Moksha. I also took a completely different view of the entire comet theory of the Mahabharata, the reasoning for Saturn’s position at Rohini and indeed Jupiter’s position during the 17th day of the war. I have verified the astronomy surrounding Karna’s death and corroborated the 4 timelines of the war, providing scientific reasoning why these conditions are not fulfilled in other astronomy proposals. Dr Achar has given a fresh theory for Gautam Buddha’s Nirvana too. We have also provided a complete rebuttal of some dates for the war, 5561BCE gets a special chapter as does the so called “revolutionary theory of Vakra motion” which has been rebutted. Rebuttals to other dating efforts will feature on my blog as and when I have the time. I hope that this will serve as learning material for those people who come to learn the astronomy of the Mahabharata in the future. There are some short film links included in this book in various chapters which will clearly illustrate my point as well. !iii I would like to reiterate that 3067BCE is the only viable date of the Mahabharata war. I would like to give my deep and heartfelt gratitude to all my Gurus, the Divine Mother Kali, and Dr Narahari Achar. I would like to thank my late parents and especially my late father for all his support. I would also like to thank Smt. Jayasree Saranathan and of course Nilesh Oak whose challenge was partly what made me learn the astronomy of the Mahabharata in this manner. I would also like to thank PVR Narasimha Rao whose free software JHora made my life somewhat easier and DK Hari and Anuraag Saxena who provided me encouragement in this endeavour. I hope that this book will provide learning material for people who attend my free workshops on the Mahabharata. These are announced on my Twitter handle at regular intervals @mmpandit and on my astronomy Wordpress blog. Those who wish to look at my spiritual blog can go to: Je Suis My films are mostly available on two sites: 1: YouTube site: https://www.youtube.com/user/SaraswatiFilms 2: www.saraswatifilms.org I will slowly update the blog and my Twitter site with many more learning links and short films. Following me on Twitter and Facebook (my page is Saraswati Films) ensures that one can see all my films as they arrive.

Terefore this observation cannot qualify as an omen in the time period of 11091BCE to 4508BCE. Hence the only logical answer is that the Arundhati Vasistha observation would only qualify as an omen later than 4508BCE and unto 1000 BCE or so. Tis actually fts perfectly with the Mahabharata war proposal of 3067BCE. SCIENTIFIC BASIS OF 3067BCE !3 Scientifc Test of a Teory: Can 3067BCE be derived from frst principles. Is it reproducible? Te frst criteria of any piece of research is whether it is reproducible or not. In the case of 3067BCE as our proposed year of the Mahabharata war, we have excluded data sets of Saturn at Vishakha and Mars retrogression at Magha. Te former is excluded because a far more likely and logical alternative explanation is found from the text itself which points to two comets near Vishakha which are penetrating the Saptarishi mandala which is at a great distance from Vishakha. Te latter data set of Mars retrograde at Magha is discarded (along with Jupiter retrograde at Shravana) because it requires the Sun to be in two positions at the same time in the same verse (the Sun is required to simultaneously be near Satabhisha and near Pushya which is impossible). Hence Saturn at Rohini and Mars going retrograde before Jyestha/Antares and at Anuradha are clearly two angles of the triangle which have been used to fnd the date of the Mahabharata war. Saturn also has the well known reputation of causing calamitous war events during its transit of Rohini nakshatra as famous wars of the last centuries have shown. We explain each of these points in great detail in separate chapters within this book. Tus we can clearly see that without taking any recourse to Kaliyuga or anything else, that the basic data points of Saturn at Aldebaran/Rohini between 5600BCE and 500CE can be intersected with Mars going retrograde before Jyestha/Antares and at Anuradha. We can clearly reproduce 210+ data points for Saturn at Aldebaran/Rohini and this set of 210 data points reduces to around 19 data sets when Mars going retrograde before Jyestha/Antares and at Anuradha is intersected with it.

  • The Mahabharata Twenty-Five Years Later
    THE MAHABHARATA TWENTy-Five YEARS LATER Peter Brook in conversation with Jonathan Kalb t age eighty-five, Peter Brook does all he can to avoid interviews. He has no interest in his own legend, and as for his theatrical ideas, he has said it all before, in his autobiography (Threads of Time), in his other books (The AEmpty Space, The Shifting Point), and in the body of influential productions that established him as one of the giants of twentieth-century theatre. At the request of a common friend, he nevertheless kindly agreed to speak to me on the subject of his magnum opus, The Mahabharata—a focus of the book I was writing at the time (Great Lengths: Seven Marathon Plays from Three Decades, forthcoming). Brook was in New York rehearsing his adaptation of Mozart’s The Magic Flute at Lincoln Center and accompanying the Theatre for a New Audience presentation of Love is My Sin, his staging of Shakespeare sonnets. Although he announced in 2008 that he was giving up day-to-day operation of his theatre in Paris, Bouffes du Nord, he has been notably active. Among his other recent projects have been: Fragments, a program of five short pieces by Samuel Beckett; Athol Fugard’sSizwe Banzi is Dead; The Grand Inquisitor, adapted from Dostoyevsky; and Tierno Bokar, a parable about tolerance and fundamentalism rooted in a spiritual dispute among Sufis. The Mahabharata was Brook’s eleven-hour stage adaptation of the massive, epic cor- nerstone of Hindu literature, religion and culture, originally produced in French in 1985 and performed in English for a 1987 world tour that included the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Majestic Theatre (now The Harvey).

Aslam Ansari, Prasanna Lata Zingare2 1Department of Botany, Govt. Shaheed Bhagat Singh P.G. College, Jaora, Ratlam, M.P., 457226, India 2Department of Biotechnology, Govt. Digvijay Autonomous P.G. College, Rajnandgaon, C.G., 491441, India *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Indian epic flora are a fundamental part of the Indian culture and apart from having medicinal importance they also have religious value. Their present diversity of species is the result of a very long and slow process of genetic change and adaptation. The time necessary for the emergence of new species, and even for the accumulation of genetic variants at individual gene loci within species, greatly exceeds the time since the emergence of Homo sapiens. New techniques of molecular biology combined with recent theories in population genetics allow us to assess the time dimension of genetic change; these suggest that some genetic polymorphisms may have originated over a million generations ago. In other words, once lost, any particular genetic adaptation cannot be regained in any realistic time interval. These plants provide many services that we take for granted. However due to growing population, increasing anthropogenic activities, rapidly eroding natural ecosystem, etc. the natural habitat for a great number of herbs and trees are dwindling. Biotechnological approaches can prove beneficial for the conservation of these important plants.

  • Mars) and in Navamsha Though It Is Occupying Another Kendra in Rāshi of His Friend Shukra (Venus), He Is Afflicted by Rahu Conjunct There
    Budha (Mercury) Budha means the intelligent, clever or a wise man in Sanskrit. It is also the name of one of the nine grahas whose movement affects human beings as well as nations and weather conditions that are the subject matter of the divine science known as Vedic Astrology. Hindu mythology (Puranas) tells that Budha (Mercury) is the illegitimate son of Chandra (Moon) out of Tara who was Guru’s (Jupiter) wife. The Puranas tell us that Chandra was enamored of Tara the wife of Guru and seduced her when she was taking a walk in a garden. Tara is then said to have eloped with Chandra. On being asked by Guru to return his wife, Chandra refused to do so. Thereupon Guru sought help of other Gods who waged war against Chandra but Chandra who was helped by Shukra (Venus) defeated them. Then Guru sought help of Lord Shiva who set out to fight Chandra. Lord Brahma, who treats Chandra as his son, knew that this war would end in annihilation of Chandra and therefore went to Chandra and prevailed upon him to return Tara to Guru, thus avoiding war. Chandra relented and returned Tara who started living with Guru. However Tara was pregnant by that time and gave birth to Budha at Guru’s place. On being confronted, she accepted that Budha was son of Chandra. However Budha was so handsome, sharp, capable of grasping thing fast, and intelligent that Guru decided to accept him as his own son and taught him all the shastras (sciences), which Budha absorbed in a short time.

  • Né Pour Briller, Né Pour Réussir Avec Une Maîtrise Parfaite, Le Pr. Lal
    Né pour briller, né pour réussir Avec une maîtrise parfaite, le Pr. Lal insère des explications dans le texte même, s’épargnant ainsi les notes. Critique, par Pradip Bhattacharya. Le Mahabharata de Vyasa. Le Karna Parva (livre de Karna), transcréé du sanskrit par le Pr Lal, Writers Workshop, Rps 1000 (broché). Tirage spécial en 50 exemplaires numérotés, avec un frontiscipe original peint à la main, Rps 2000. La bataille du Kurukshetra présente un double point fort : le duel Karna-Arjuna et la confrontation finale Bhima-Duryodhana. Nous arrivons au troisième livre de la bataille, l’ancienne génération est tombée ; et en même temps qu’elle, ses obsessions. La soif de revanche de Drupada sur Bhishma et Drona a été assouvie par deux de ses fils, engendrés dans ce but. Avant d’être décapité, Drona tue deux des principaux alliés des Pandava : Drupada et Virata. L’ancien Bahlika, Bhagadatta, Bhurishrava – tous sont tués. Rien ne fait plus obstacle au désir de Duryodhana de nommer Karna commandant en chef, un désir auquel il avait dû renoncer par deux fois. Bien que Karna ait fui au moins par trois fois du champ de bataille durant le commandement de Drona, Duryodhana s’accroche à son invincibilité avec une foi aveugle, avec le désespoir d’un homme qui se noie. Le lecteur notera un trait unique du style du Pr. Lal dans sa transcréation : l’utilisation de doublets chaque fois que Vyasa n’emploie pas le nom usuel d’un personnage. Ainsi, avec une maîtrise parfaite, il insère des explications dans le texte même, s’épargnant les notes.

  • Chapter Iv Data Analysis
    CHAPTER IV DATA ANALYSIS Ramayana and Mahabharata are Wiracarita, the heroic stories which are well – known from one generation to another. These two great epics are originally written in Sanskrit. The author of Ramayana is Walmiki, and the author of Mahabharata is Bhagawan Wyasa. Ramayana and Mahabharata have been translated into various languages. In Indonesia, these two great epics have been retold in various versions such as Wayang kulit performance, dance, book, novel, and comic. For this research, the writer chooses the Mahabharata novel by Nyoman. S. Pendit. With the focus of the research on the heroic journey of Arjuna in this novel. In this chapter, the writer would like to answer and to analyze three problem formulations of this research. First, the writer would like to retell Arjuna‟s journey based on the twenty parts selected in the Mahabharata novel. After that, as the second problem formulation, the writer would like to compare to what extent the journey of Arjuna on the twenty parts selected in the Mahabharata novel fulfills the criteria of the Hero‟s Journey theory proposed by Joseph Campbell. The Hero‟s Journey theory itself consists of seventeen stages divided into three big stages: Departure – Initiation – Return. It can be seen from the journey of Arjuna in the Mahabharata novel by Nyoman. S. Pendit. After going through the several archetypal journey process framed in the Hero‟s Journey theory, Arjuna gets or shows the life virtues in himself. Therefore, as the third problem formulation, the 34 writer would like to mention what kind of life virtues showed by Arjuna on the twenty parts selected in the Mahabharata novel.
